I just built a server using a Supermicro X8DAH+-F board and running Ubuntu 10.04 Server 64bit. This has the Intel 82576 dual port controller (one port is disabled). Since this is a server, remote access is imperative.
The server is connected to a switch (DLink), and the switch is connected to a...
@Aarthi I have a whole bunch of tags that differ by one letter or a - that we need to sort through, I was going to bring them to the communities attention when we got the bad tags sorted
I'm looking for a solution to organize the work shifts of a department like this:
15 employees with each has a different number of hours to work
Monday-Friday, 6:00-22:00
always one or more employees on shift
overlapping shifts
self-organization: employees plan their shifts on their own
must ...
as much as I'd like to explain to him what "in a professional capacity" means (as part of your freakin JOB), why policy circumvention is the very definition of unprofessional, and why the correct answer to a problem with a system you don't control is to call the sysadmin, I can't be arsed :P
I.... don't know. My heart says burninate (or at least untag DB-side)
It was a very polite answer. I didn't go all gollum-MTV-awards on him. But he flounced, which to me says "I just want to scream and cry and clutch my pearls while calling you all swine and storming off"
@David I thought firefox had no version numbers anymore
@Aarthi that's one that looks like it's being used descriptively and the SEO reordering of tags is messing with the OPs intentions - I'd say burn (based on a quick scan) but see what others say
Just wondering if anyone had any advice on how to get IT consulting jobs/clients? I would be looking to target small business in my local area.
Also, does having certifations (e.g. MCSE) help attain clients
Any other advice welcome.
Thanks

At a start-up company where we have probably now grown sufficiently to warrant a dedicated system administrator.
Is it worth using a recruiter to find a good system administrator? Or, would the cost likely outweigh any benefits?
From a technical perspective, we don't have any unusual or signifi...
Are there online resources or books that you would recommend as an introduction to PowerShell scripting? The resources I've found primarily focus on interactive use.
How can I enable non-admin users to run a certain application (in my case, a script) with admin permissions on Windows XP?
This would be similar to the setuid bit on *nix.
@voretaq7 oh hell yes. I do fear that some has gotten to me too.
@voretaq7 It obviously got to my boss too. I was given authority to make all necessary technical decisions over the day to day operations...provided that none of them cost any money. Ever.
@Aarthi Look, you're welcome to stay, but the herd of Alots will be arriving in the morning, and you know how cranky they can be after being cooped up in a container car for months with the Alot of Garbage...

Using a two-panel file manager really helps for some file operations.

I wrote a query a little over a month ago that sorts tags based upon their closure ratio. Some of them are legitimate tags (nntp seems like a keeper), but most are just signs of poor tag choices or topics that don't apply to this site.
For posterity and clickability, below are the top 100 at the...
I run out of close votes on just stuff that's posted during the day, and only if I'm halfway keeping an eye on the site. ... Oh wait, I'm just gonna go post on meta.
What kinds of questions would you ask and what scenarios would you describe, what kinds of answers would you look for?
I don't ask for specific questions. I would like to know which interview strategy is good for selecting candidates who are qualified for the job.
A lot of us try to avoid migrating things at all; we'll only vote-to-migrate really good questions or the worst question Super User has ever seen... :)
I have a CSV file containing about a lot of email IDs(of the order of tens of millions). I want them in my Outlook. But when I try to import them, Outlook crashes every time.
So is there any trick/shortcut by which I can get them in my Outlook?
We wanted to inform everyone that our third Central Backup server failed about 7 days ago. Unfortunately the cause as to why it has failed is still being looked into, but, in the meantime we have replaced the server and it is back online and accepting backups once more.
Since Chicago Central Backup 3 failed, the backups were lost on it. We are working on recovering the backups from the old server, but we are not sure we can recover them.
Our recommendation is if you had a backup on Chicago Central Backup 3 to recreate it. We are working pulling all of the old backups from your profile.
